Finally by Thilo Wagner, Wolfgang Mörike, Gregor Beck

"...a straight-ahead piano / bass / drums trio ... There's not a loser among the titles presented here. Intense melodies followed by long, singing improvisations. Go out and get it."
- Jazz Podium

Three talented musicians have joined together here, who have discovered a common passion during their collaboration with their very different bands, namely their passion for swinging mainstream music with a line-up of piano, bass and drums, totally in the tradition of Oscar Peterson and Wynton Kelly. In addition to blind understanding of each other, the trio is distinguished by imaginative playing, dynamics, drive and breath-taking virtuosity.

"Thilo Wagner zeigt sich als wahrer Meister seines Fachs. Er erinnert wie kein anderer in seiner Spielweise an den großen Pianisten Oscar Peterson. Sein swingender Klavierstil, seine technische Brillanz und Vitalität sind bemerkenswert."
- Herbert Lindenberger

"...hat die deutsche Szene wieder einen Swing-Pianisten von Rang."
- Martin Kunzler (Autor Jazz-Lexikon)
